SOLD OUT
We are not selling horse belts at this time due to supply issues, and we do not know when (or if) we might offer them again in the future. We recommend you consider Bullhide, which makes a fantastic gun belt and is available in more sizes with many more options.
Horse hide is a denser material and thus it is more abrasion and moisture resistant. Because the leather is denser, this is the stiffest gunbelt we make. An internal stiffener is rarely necessary on a belt that is already this stiff, but if you want an EXTRA stiff gunbelt, a Horse belt with stiffener is the ticket! Horse hide also lends itself to a greater degree of sheen when polished. Many professionals appreciate the look, quality and durability of horse hide.
A 1 3/4" wide Horse belt makes a super strong belt! It's tough enough to take anything you can dish out and still look GOOD! Many holsters slots are already cut for 1-¾", and some jeans and work pants have loops that can accommodate a 1-¾" wide belt, but many do not, and VERY FEW (if any) dress pants will accommodate a belt this wide and thick. The potential problem arises where the tip of the belt overlaps itself after the buckle - while many belt loops can easily handle ONE layer of a 1.75" wide by .25" thick belt, they may not be able to accommodate the SECOND layer, where the tip of the belt is tucked (after buckling) into the first belt-loop on your pants. So please check the loops on your pants carefully to make sure this belt will work for you.
Our horse hide belts are made in the same exacting manner as our other dual layer gun belts; that is, an outer layer of submersion dyed horse hide is mated to an un-dyed layer of 7.5oz. bull hide, and stitched together with heavy-duty nylon. The belt is then given an incredibly fine level of edge beveling and polishing, making the dual layer belt look like one piece of leather. The final waxing and hand buffing with lambs wool makes this a belt you will be proud to wear for many years to come!
All belts come with 7 holes on 3/4" centers for maximum adjustability.
Don't order your pants-waist size! Please carefully follow our SIZING GUIDE before ordering your belt.
These belts are custom made, and custom belt orders placed today will ship in approximately 12-16 days.
My second beltman purhase, the first since the change in ownership. My first was purchased some 15 years ago and is still going strong. Just time for a second. Same exceptional quality and service. After I ordered, David reached out to me to confirm measurements. Belt arrived in a timely manner, then got embargoed for a couple weeks until my better half could present it as a gift for a special occassion. Holds everything in place just a great belt should. I have no doubt it is going to last me at least a couple of decades just as my prior beltman belt has done
Professional process and excellent quality belt. I followed their advice on sizing and I’m glad I did.
This was my third Beltman belt. I have worn one everyday for over ten years. The only reason I needed a new one is because I wanted to try a new color. The quality and customer service from this business is unmatched. I received the last tapered belt they made and I am sure it will last a decade like my first one. I now have a dedicated uniform belt and an every day belt. If you carry anything off of you belt, a sturdy belt like this is a must. These are heirloom quality belts. "Hey, you ordered a 1.5 inch belt last time, are you sure you want a 1.75 inch? Just double checking" No other business takes the time to do this. Give them your business; you will not be disappointed. David went out of his way to make sure I was 100% satisfied as a customer. It is the small things like this that made me a lifetime customer.
This belt fits right, David took the time and patience to work with me to make sure that he had enough information from me to be confident that he would make the right size belt and he did! This is comfortable, and firm enough to hold my side arm and not droop, and on top of that it's a damn nice looking belt to top it off. So stop looking around around for something better because you won't find it. Thanks again.
The quality is otherworldy, get jokes that i will die before belt wears out. I bought their 1,75" horsehide dual-layered belt, fully maxed out with stifferner and double stiching. Really heavy duty, used everyday and no signs of wear at all, except normal patina. Ordered another one in black and received it last week,still as good as my first order Recommend it!
Solid Belt. The best of its kind that I have found. Will buy again.
Great belt. Double stitching looks good on this wider belt.
Finally, a belt that does not sag, is good looking, and is very functional. Customer service is excellent. Thank you for creating a product that will last years.
I am using it everyday! I ordered the Wide Horsehide belt and David reached out to confirm the size. I know the size is mention on his website but following this gets me an extremely good fit! With the hole I am using there are three holes on each size for carrying or wearing long johns. Thanks David!
Excellent! I have a big belly, and this belt helps keep it held up, especially with the aid of my Perry 48" Regular Ruff-N-Tuff Work Suspenders that attach to the BELT! These suspenders are seriously strong and are MORE than twice as strong as the regular Perry or HoldUp suspenders. Anyway, you can hold up your belt, pants, gun, 2-way radio, etc using this combo: BELTMAN belt and the Ruff n-Tuff suspenders! See the attached photo. I also added the Paul Revere 1.75" SS Roller buckle; it is about 3/4" wider than the roller buckle that comes with the BELTMAN belt, so it is easier to flex the belt through this longer buckle than the shorter one from Beltman.com. See the attached photo. My size 45" horse hide & stiffener belt is 0.285" thick - very substantial! My belt is 1.74" wide, and it seems to support my back as well! I'm love'n it!! The inside of the belt is a beautiful natural full-grain Bull hide with two rows of black heavy-duty stitching, it is impressive and sure to last many, many years! I bought some "Saphir Amiral Gloss 50ml – Leather Shoe Care Polish for Mirror Shine" clear wax polish to buff it to a glowing shine with lambswool so no dark stains will get on the inside natural bull hide leather; I'll probably wax & buff the inside natural hide as well! Just don't roll up the belt into a tight roll as it will damage the grain and may crack the polish.
If you follow the sizing chart carefuly and ofc recieve help from beltman staff. You will not be disapointed.
I ordered one with a stiffener. Sturdy as hell and works perfectly with my hi-rise Safariland 565-BL and my HK MK23. I wear it even when I am not carrying because I love the look and feel. I'm sure I'll be ordering a 2" belt in the future :)
My brother inlaw has had one of these belts for years and raved about it. I finally pulled the trigger on it and it is beyond my expectations! I carry concealed everywhere and with the added stiffener it disperses the weight perfectly. I highly recommend this, you won't be disappointed.
Great belt as always. I do strongly wish that Beltman would get away from doing the black edges on every belt. Natural waxed & burnished edges would be my preference. Also I wish he offered white or natural thread for the stitching.
Dealt with courteous staff for correct sizing and it turned out great. Love the belt and the quality, it feels like it should last forever. Very satisfied.
I don’t know if this is the last belt I’m ever gonna buy but fully intend on not buying another belt for Atleast 10 years awesome quality. Supports my guns, makes my back not hurt. Fantastic
Belt is great and is good fit, looks good and should not buckle at centre of my back which is issue I want to resolve. Very pleased
